how to name it

there is an issue. a third party  gave its opinion. one of the involved parties took this to be the gospel truth as it is beneficial to its fortunes. the matter is then brought before the highest judging authority. in the meanwhile, the other involved party states its stand. this statement by way of explanation has been termed egregious folly by the hindu.

how can this be described or understood? the minister of telecom s statement should be evaluated and analysed and then merited for the value contained in it. instead, that the minister of telecom spoke has been made the issue. even now, there is not a single credible media house in our country which can give a balanced view on the 2g issue to the people. all are happy with just targeting personalities and having a bit of the spotlight. why are our media folk so afraid that a minister's statement by way of explanation will derail the case. if there is wrongdoing, it is bound to come out. are they not confident about that? is that all they know about the system in our country. 

so, in a democracy, the government should be a wounded bystander, as all and sundry level all kinds of abuse and misinterpretations. this is what the editor of the hindu wants, the democratically elected government should keep its mouth shut on a matter involving itself, because the opposition, the media and the courts are seized of the matter. then, why have a government. such a patently illogical advice is tendered by a newspaper that can be called among the best in our country.

the hindu editorial on tony blair is a call for justice to be brought to bear on tony blair. however, the editor of the hindu cannot summon the same sense of justice when he deals with mahinda rajapakse, whom he deferentially and reverentially addresses as mr president, whenever he interviews him. why is the same deference and reverence not present when he writes about tony blair. should' nt tony blair be referred to with respect, as a two-term prime minister of the UK.

the editorial calls for the indictment of Tony Blair before the bar of humanity.such a lofty call has not been visible till now in the Hindu's view of the situation in Ceylon. the reader of the newspaper would have no idea at all about the various processes all over the world, to ensure an investigation into the last months of the war. but the paper calls for tony blair's indictment. there is a decision here, to deny some information to the readers, which cannot but cause a blemish to the newspaper.
